News: 2NE1 Concert, Guaranteed To Be A Unique Experience From Other Girl Groups

2NE1 Concert, Guaranteed To Be A Unique Experience From Other Girl Groups

Girl group 2NE1‘s first concert is highly expected.

On the 26th-28th, 2NE1 would be having their first solo concert, NOLZA, in Olympic Hall, at Seoul Olympic Park. Originally, it was supposed to be held only on the 27th and 28th, but because of the fact that the tickets were sold-off the moment they were released and because of the great attention it got from fans, YGE President, Yang Hyun Suk decided to add one more day to the concert.

Since their debut, this group has produced hits and trends, that led them to emerge as one of South Korea’s leading girl group. And this concert has garnered the interests not only from fans, but also from the industry. In fact, even YG Entertainment CEO, Yang Hyun Suk was not able to get tickets to give to his friends, because of the high concert tickets sales.

With their comeback this year, they already garnered 5 consecutive hits and all-kills, even gaining more ground for their concert, Nolza, with people wanting to see what more they could offer. Before the start of the concert, let’s take a look at 3 points that would be interesting:

Sandara Park’s “Cute” Transformation?

Sandara Park, who is the impressive member responsible for their image because of her cute looks and fresh vocals, would be transforming into a “cute” concept. In the concert, she and gagman, Park Myung Soo, would be performing “Naengmyun” on stage.

“Naengmyun” was a collaboration with SNSD’s Jessica in 2009, when they teamed up for “Infinite Challenge – Olympic Duet Song.” It became popular because of its fun lyrics and interesting music.

Jessica’s cute voice was the main “point” of the song, and fans are looking forward to how Sandara Park would perform it.

“Infinite Challenge” Performance… GD- Park Myung Soo – Park Bom “I cheated”

Along with special guests, Big Bang’s G-Dragon and comedian, Park Myungsoo, 2NE1’s Park Bom would be performing “I Cheated” on stage.

According to YG Entertainment, Big Bang’s G-Dragon and Park Myungsoo, would be attending the concert, as guests who would perform their “Infinite Challenge” hit song, “I Cheated.”

Before this, YG Producers, G-Dragon and Teddy, fully supported Park Myung Soo’s stint in “Infinity Challenge,” and wrote up the song. Park Myung Soo then demanded that it feature 2NE1’s Park Bom, much to the delight of the viewers.

In the festival where Bom was a secret guest, she showed an excellent performance on stage. Thanks to this broadcast, “I Cheated” swept several music charts for the top spot.

A YGE representative said, “For 2NE1’s first concert, we wanted the audience to really have fun, so we invited Park Myung Soo to be a special guest on stage, and despite his busy schedule, he accepted without any hesitation,” he explained.

Music and Fashion Collaboration

2NE1’s concert would not only show off their great music, but will also be combined with a fashionable concept, marked with several intense planning for the stage, to show off the best combination.

Known for being a trend setter in the music industry with their stylish outfits, 2NE1’s concert “NOLZA” would be showing several costumes that were prepared specifically for each stage.

Ever since their debut, 2NE1 has always called attention because of the group’s costumes and styles. It is already rumored that the costumes for this concert would play a huge impact. The stage outfits would surely be overwhelming and interesting.

In addition, a large screen with hologram, and several other technologies, are placed in the venue, to make “NOLZA” a more enjoyable experience for those attending. Their goal is for the fans to truly enjoy the concert and be able to see the stage.

This year, Don’t Cry, Lonely, I Am the Best, Hate You, and Ugly made an unprecedented record for five consecutive all-kills that 2NE1 achieved. For their first concert, NOLZA, amazing performances that will showcase the growth in their skills, and awesome songs, are expected by the music industry.

Park Taehwan has promised to upload an authentication shot with the spiked swimming cap that 2NE1’s Sandara Park had given him.

On the 21st, MBC TV’s “Section TV, Entertainment News,” met up with Park Taehwan when he was filming for an ad.

When asked whether he and Sandara Park communicated and got in touch with each other, Park Taehwan said, “When I won a gold medal recently, she sent me a congratulatory message that said ‘Park Taehwan is the best,‘” he said. Park Taehwan has revealed that Sandara Park was his ideal type, and she appeared as a surprise guest when he was recording KBS 2TVWinWin,” where he got the chance to meet her.

During her featuring, Sandara Park presented him with a spiked swimming cap, and when Taehwan was asked why he didn’t wear the cap during his the 2011 World Swimming Championships in Shanghai, he answered, “I really wanted to wear it, but because of the weight of the iron, I was afraid to sink,” he added, “But I’d wear it during practice and I’ll give you a confirmation shot,” she said, leaving a funny message for Sandara Park right after.

*TN: I didn’t translate the stuff we already know, about his winnign and all. ^_^*
